The second with cut lemons in a glass surrounded by grapes, pear, apple, white currants and a peach with a wasp hovering above. Also signed to lower margin right ‘H. Gill’.
Extremely beautiful and realistic and in original period frame and gilt slip. To verso of the board inside is a label which reads ‘Glass and Fruit, November 14th 1891. Presented to my wife Kate by J.A. Scott.
